Either side of July and August, the islands are quieter (preferred by some) and the temperatures are a little cooler, but still warm. Also, if you wish to charter a yacht during these periods, low season rates may apply, reducing yacht charter fees compared to high season prices.

Palma de Mallorca is a popular location to start a yacht charter. Ibiza also has a busy international airport, as does Menorca. Each island also has a number of private airports.
Formentera is only accessible by yacht. Many choose to charter a yacht in Ibiza and visit the beautiful island of Formentera by water.
